NIGHT 12
Taylor Swift played the fourth night of her Electric Princess Tour, in Rio De Janiero tonight. To a sold out crowd of 81,325 people, Taylor gave a show full of stunning visuals, video montages, and performances of songs of songs in her six album discography. Every song on her 'Coven 13: The EP' was performed, some serving as interludes rather than full performances but every song was included in the set. The tour follows the evolution of a girl who has been dubbed as "insane" or "crazy" and is sent to a mental hospital where she is rather tortured than helped. She begins to reminisce before being sent to the hospital, thinking back to the events that led up to her getting sent to the hospital. More downtempo songs like 'Losing Touch', and the collab 'Gunshots' are performed here, along with a cover of Beyoncé and Jay Z's ' On The Run'. She then comes back to reality, facing the truth of what is wrong in her life with songs like "I Knew You Were Trouble", 'Girl With the Red Lipstick" and a few more. The final act is 'The Electric Princess', which is the last of the act of the show. Taylor instead of getting better hast turned into a egotistical monster aka The Electric Princess. The biggest hit of Swift's career 'Swarovski' closes the show as Swift is coronated as the 'Electric Princess'.

Britney Spears : Royal Variety Performance
The Royal Variety Performance is a gala evening held annually in the United Kingdom, which is attended by senior members of the British Royal Family, usually the reigning monarch. The reigning monarch either attends in person or is represented by another member of the royal family. The event is organized on behalf of the Entertainment Artistes' Benevolent Fund of which Queen Elizabeth II is patron. All proceeds are donated to the fund.The performance is broadcast on television through ITV, the oldest commercial network in the UK. The event took place today with Spears' as the main performer with Queen Elizabeth in the audience.
Performance
Britney Spears gave nothing but her best when performing in front of the Queen, and stuck to a more safe/respectful performance where she could sign vocally instead of choreographically. Britney started off on the piano wearing a long white gown. Smoke surrounded the stage as Britney sang "Where'd The Good Times Go?", her vocals were on point and she sounded perfect. Spears was impressing the Queen as a tear was streaming down her eye in a close up view. Britney played the piano extremely well, it seems as though her piano skills are improving. Britney got up after that song was over for a slowed down version of Gimme Your Best. Britney sang Gimme Your Best in ballad form and hit several high notes. Spears walked around the stage as the long white gown was covered in smoke. Britney pulled up the dress and twirled a few times and did a few flexible dance moves as dancers hung above her in the air on white threads, moving flexibly in the air to entertain the crowd. Britney then sat down on a white circular platform which men moved around the stage while she sat on it. She sang the last chorus of Gimme Your Best very well and the Queen was singing along in a closeup shot.
Britney then got up and bowed as she said "Thank you so much for having me Queen Elizabeth". Spears took a picture with the Queen backstage as the camera followed Britney & The Queen to end the broadcast. Britney told the Queen that she would be performing her tour in London tonight and the Queen was very excited and asked for tickets. The Queen also talked to the camera and said "get American Dream on iTunes!", the broadcast ended with Britney laughing at the comment and the Queen smiling.

Night Five
Britney Spears embarks on her “Naughty Girl” stadium tour to promote her new album “American Dream” as the tour is filled with tracks off the album. The tour follows Britney’s life from the “Dreaming Days” before fame to the “Hollywood Babe” of Britney in her prime, to her “Rebellious Heart” and troubles of the past year and to her current “Naughty Girl” style as she embarks on the current era of her career. The tour is filled with incredible visuals and effects, the interludes are beautiful and sexy. Britney stuns in her outfits as her body is on point, the choreography is incredible and the stage features are amazing. Britney uses several flying platforms and additional stage platforms that rise up high in the air so the whole audience can catch a glimpse of her. Several fire/water effects are used as huge light shows create a technically advanced feel for the tour. Britney pushes the limits and even ties her herself up in a glass box of water to open the “Rebellious Heart” set, she bangs against the glass frame as she tries to escape, scaring the life out of fans in the stadium as she purposely panics. The costumes are sexy and scandalous and leave little to the imagination, Britney certainly pulled out all the stops for this tour as it truly is her biggest production yet.

Zedd interviewed on Alan Carr
Zedd was interviewed by Alan Carr for his talk show Chatty Man tonight. He and Lady Gaga performed “Temple” and “Slay” together during the same show. Both the interview and performance were prerecorded last week due to Zedd’s ongoing Moment of Serenity World Tour. The interview discussed Zedd’s latest album Serenity as well as the two singles from it. Also discussed were other projects, the tour, and candidates for the third single from Serenity. The interview can be read below.
Alan Carr: Our next guest is a major EDM producer and DJ. He has had a hit in the UK with “Stay the Night” and currently has a growing single out called “Temple” which features Lady Gaga. He is also currently on a world tour. It’s Zedd!
[Applause as Zedd walks out.]
Carr: Welcome to the show!
Zedd: Thanks!
Carr: So, you just released a new album on Sunday, right?
Zedd: Yep! It’s called Serenity. It has a total of 13 tracks.
Carr: And it has two singles out currently, “Slay” and “Temple.”
Zedd: Yep. We’re trying to promote both, but "Temple" has just gotten most of the promotion the last couple weeks. [Chuckles.]
Carr: Love the music videos for both, by the way!
Zedd: Thanks, but I can’t take credit for "Temple." It’s Gaga’s.
Carr: You got two VMA nominations for it though, so congrats! [Applause.]
Zedd: Thank you! I was surprised I got one, let alone two. I felt other artists were more
deserving. For example, “Gunshots” by Taylor Swift and Zendaya. That got no nominations, and it was amazing! Anyway, I’ve been trying to promote “Temple,” but I’m going to start promoting “Slay” more so it can have a higher peak and sell more.
Carr: So, how is the album doing?
Zedd: Very well. I have a promotion going on in the States with Six Flags to promote and sell my album at their parks starting on Sunday. I’m also taking my tour through their parks first. The album sold out within the first hour of each park being open on Sunday.
Carr: Congratulations! [Applause.] So, your tour, currently it’s going through the Six Flags parks. When is it coming here?
Zedd: Well, I have three weeks of Six Flags performances, split up by Marina and the Diamonds’ Myths World Tour. I’m doing concerts this week, and then I’ll be opening for Marina in Europe. We’ll be at O2 ABC Glasgow on the 31st of July and The Tabernacle in London on the 1st of August! [Applause.] After that, we’ll be in North America where I will do four of my tour dates, just earlier in the evening so I can get to Marina’s shows in time. I was only able to schedule four as there are no Six Flags parks anywhere near Vancouver for that date. After that, Marina and I will both be in South America for the last week of the first leg of her tour. After that, I’ll be back in America finishing up the Six Flags leg of the tour. I will then begin the real first leg of my tour here in the UK, which will cover all of Europe. [Applause.]
Carr: What’s the plan as far as the legs go?
Zedd: Well, the first leg is the Six Flags leg, so that would be North America. Second will be Europe, third will be Asia, fourth will be Oceania and Africa, fifth will be South America, and the final leg will be in North America.
Carr: Why does North America get two legs? [Chuckles.]
Zedd: They’re not getting the full experience with the first.
Carr: Anyway, are there any other projects you’re working on?
Zedd: I have a song on Rihanna’s album called “Drowning.” From what I’ve heard, it may or may not be a single. I also have a collaboration with Kesha on my album, “Not a Single Problem.” She’s including it on her upcoming album.
Carr: So, do you know what the third single from Serenity will be?
Zedd: Not sure, but I think it will be “I Found You.” It features Ryan Tedder, and he worked with me to produce the song. There’s also a chance it could be “Not a Single Problem,” but it will have to be a joint release.
Carr: Thank you for stopping by, Zedd. Can’t wait to see your performance with Lady Gaga later!
Zedd: Thanks for having me here!
The performance of “Temple” and “Slay” will be coming in a separate article. In the meantime, watch the music video for both on YouTube and Vevo!
 
Zedd's new album Serenity as well as the singles "Slay" and "Temple" (feat. Lady Gaga) are now available on iTunes, Google Play, Amazon, various retail stores, and all Six Flags parks.

Azealia on Bethenny
Azealia Banks appeared on Bethenny Frankel's talk show "Bethenny" today to promote her new single with Rita Ora entitled "Time to Hop Off." On the show Azealia both sat down for an interview and also did a performance of Time to Hop Off. The interview and performance were uploaded onto Bethenny's YouTube account earlier today. In the interview Azealia talked about her previous beef with Rita and also her sexual harassment from Jay Leno. Azealia even brought the crowd to tears when she talked about her experience with Jay.
Before the performance, Azealia sat down for an interview with Bethenny Frankel. When Bethenny asked Azealia about her album Reborn's success Azealia responded "I'm so happy with how things have been going for Reborn. It's a great album and I'm so happy it's been successful. It's even already outsold my previous work Domination, which is crazy." Bethenny then asked Azealia about her old beef with Rita Ora in which Azealia said "We had our issues. That's a fact. However, that's behind both of us and we decided to be grown ups and put that behind us and create art together." The question that brought the crowd to tears though was when Bethenny asked Azealia about Jay Leno to what Azealia responded "It was just horrible. I wanted to just give my fans a performance and I felt like I was being brought down. I am my own person and this is my own body! No one ever tries to lay a hand on me without my permission." This brought tears to everyone's eyes and had the crowd give Azealia a standing ovation when she mentioned how you don't touch her body without permission.
After that emotional interview, Azealia then went to perform a solo version of Time to Hop Off. Azealia was wearing white skinny jeans and a blue silk blouse designed by Valentino. Azealia even wore out her natural hair for the performance showing the world her beautiful braids underneath all of her wigs that she's been hiding. During the performance, Azealia performed a slowed down version of Time to Hop Off in which she showed off her outstanding vocals as she sang each note standing and closing her eyes as she held onto the mic. After this performance, Bethenny came out to remind the crowd to buy Reborn and Time to Hop Off on iTunes.

Azealia for Valentino
Announced as the new face of the fashion design company, Azealia Banks just revealed her photoshoot for Valentino as well as a commercial. The commercial is expected to be sent to over 100 tv stations. Uploaded to YouTube about twelve hours ago, the commercial has attracted the likes of Anna Wintour and Naomi Campbell who have both praised Azealia's style and elegance throughout the video. With over a million views already, the video has already gained a notable amount of attention. When asked about if there are more commercials coming Azealia said "I don't know! You'll just have to keep a lookout."
At the start of the Valentino commercial Azealia is sitting down wearing a black lace corset with her hair in colors. Sitting down at the vanity, the camera zooms in on Azealia as she looks in the mirror applying her lipstick. This entire portion of the commercial is filmed in black and white with Time to Hop Off playing over the video. Azealia is then seen taking the curlers out of her hair revealing a beautiful and stylish curly hair look. The camera then zooms in on the size of Azealia showing her zip up a dress. After this Azealia is seen slipping on her pumps and adjusting her lipstick in the mirror. with the camera following Azealia showing her train drag on the ground, Azealia is then outside on the streets of Milan where the camera then cinematically rotates to the front showing Azealia and zooms out to show the entire outfit. Revealing a beige dress, the video turns to color to show off this long and feathered beige lace dress with elaborate gold beading on the sides. Azealia is seen with silk beige gloves and as she stands in the street she looks up at the sky and lifts up both of her arms dramatically as a camera flashes and "Valentino 2015" appears across the screen.
The video has gained notable attention from fashion designers all over. With over a million views, the Valentino commercial has bumped Time to Hop Off greatly on iTunes. Harper's Bazaar praised the commercial as "Glamorous, beautiful, and grand." Rumors have been circulating that Azealia will also be performing on a Valentino runway in this coming week. Along with the commercial, photos of Azealia's shoot have been sent to billboards around the world including Times Square where Time to Hop Off plays as the commercial plays. All photos from the shoot are expected to appear in the latest issues of Vogue, Elle, V, and Bazaar. Azealia's campaign for Valentino doesn't end here though as she's hinted more is to come in the future.

Zedd and Lady Gaga perform on Alan Carr
Zedd and Lady Gaga were on Alan Carr: Chatty Man to perform their single “Temple” as well as Zedd’s solo single “Slay.” While “Slay” has not been performed for a couple weeks, “Temple” has been on a disorganized promotional circuit for a while. As a result, it peaked at number nine on the CAL Singles Chart and fell to 11 on the last chart. However, Zedd is wanting to turn this around this week with more performances, an album release, and a tour. This performance is a part of that attempt.
Zedd walked out to the stage dressed in his usual outfit. He started to play “Slay,” and he continued to play and adjust the song until Gaga walked out as the song ended. She wore a gold dress with a matching headpiece. She walked slowly to center stage. When she got there, Zedd started to play a piano rendition of “Temple” and Gaga started singing. Gaga stood in that spot until the chorus kicked in, when her dancers came out and the beat kicked in. She did the song’s choreography until the bridge, when she started to belt out the signature high notes on the song. After the bridge, there was a new breakdown where Gaga and her dancers did new choreography. Then, the final chorus kicked in and she was picked up by her dancers and threw flower petals all over the stage and in the crowd. The song ended as Gaga was set down. The audience gave the two a standing ovation for this wonderful performance.
Reviews of the performance were extremely positive. The London Times stated that the performance was “electrifying and simply wonderful. I would pay to see this performance again.” The Sun stated, “We found this performance invigorating and exciting; Lady Gaga and Zedd definitely know how to put on a show. I would love to see them on tour together! However, not all the reviews were positive. In a review by the US-based Parents Television Council, they stated, “Lady Gaga’s dance moves in this performance are too sexual for anyone to view. That aside, her past antics are enough to ban her from all television, and that we should do.” Despite this, both songs and the album rose on iTunes worldwide.
Zedd's new album Serenity as well as the singles "Slay" and "Temple" (feat. Lady Gaga) are now available on iTunes, Google Play, Amazon, various retail stores, and all Six Flags parks.
